Take 2 photos. Have the sun in one (which will generate flare) then take the same photo but covering the sun with your thumb in the second. That will remove the flare and if you have editing software blend the sun from the first photo with the flare into the second without the flare.

I have never seen anything like this before it was brilliant

Another thumbs up for Newcastle - great service.

My dad has a Z7 and it is nice but i do not like the EVF. It is great to see the histogram in the viewfinder but i dont like the look of it - if the Z7, Z7ii had something like the fuji cameras where you can swap between evf and ovf it may have been a different story.

Had a quick go yesterday more of a grab type shot as out with the kids so it is a bit meh, but still looking forward to messing about with it a bit more NGU_0009 by Neil, on Flickr

Really helpful thanks - i have some decent lenses already so will stick with them

I have also just got a d850 which I wondered about the sense of as mirrorless seems to be the way forward, but as good as an evf is i can't get away with it using one yet and there is the additional expense of the memory card and adapter. My last camera was a d800 and lasted 10 years so i may...

It also depends on how wide you want to go. 18-35 on a cropped sensor is like 29 - 52mm ish equivalent on the D700. The 17-35 2.8 is o.k but relatively expensive. I have not used the 16-35 and have heard mixed things about it and it is f4. If you have used a zoom before a prime may not be...

Every year I go to Roseberry Topping is exactly the same, no clouds. Apart from last year when it rained. This year, for a change, too much cloud. Roseberry Topping by Neil, on Flickr

I am not sure about that - you can get more detail out by sharpening the D800 file, but then if you sharpen the D810 file the same, the D810 still looks sharper. To be fair though unless you are printing massive prints, i don't think that the difference is huge.

That Spanish City is especially nice.

Zeiss 25mm f2. Hands down my favourite landscape lens ever.

From where it started this has become an interesting thread. Consider the comments about 35mm film and digital I remember reading this below a while ago about medium format and digital images - has a couple of 35mm film ones too...

Also, leaving aside the copy / paste ness - I genuinely from a personal perspective, don't see how using photographs of different people at different times from different angles all shot at what looks like a very large aperture in different lighting demonstrates anything about lens fidelity /...

Saw this on Flickr just now and it is superb!
